HIGHLAND HEIGHTS, Ky. – The final preseason tune-up for Northern Kentucky men's soccer ended in a 2-0 loss to No. 14 Kentucky. The Norse had three excellent opportunities early in the match, but each was thwarted by UK's goalkeeper. Kentucky struck on Luke Andrew's 1-v-1 in the 33' in what was an apparent offsides that was waved off. Kentucky put another tally on the scoreboard in the 72' thanks to Luis Grassow. Daniel Bermingham racked up seven saves on 10 shots on goal and the Norse were credited with a team save as well.

NKU lifts the lid on the 2021 season with a trip to UNC Asheville on Aug. 26. The match will start at 3 p.m., and can be seen on ESPN+.
